[...why is this device not working.

Loki pulls it away from his ear and glares at it. Hanging it up a little harder than necessary, he tries again.]

[...okay and now the phone is ringing. Hiccup picks it up.]

Hello?

[putmeinstitches.livejournal.com]

There you are! Your phone wasn't working right. It made weird sounds at me until I hung up and tried again.

[worstvikingever]

I think that's called a busy signal. It happens when you try to call someone and they're using the phone to call someone else.

...which is funny, 'cause I was just trying to call you.

....wait, a connection can't be made that way? But if two people are calling one another, then that makes no sense.

[worstvikingever]

Well no, 'cause the connection depends on there being a point of reception, and if both people are calling, neither person can be the receiver.

[There is silence for a few seconds.]

You'd think they'd find a way to fix that by now.

[worstvikingever]

I dunno, maybe. Anyway, what were you calling about?

[putmeinstitches.livejournal.com]

It's about those devices you're working on. You wouldn't happen to have been calling me with good news about them, would you?

[worstvikingever]

Oh yeah. That's why I was calling. They're all done.

[putmeinstitches.livejournal.com]

[That's an audible grin.]

Excellent. When can you take them to the car lot? I'll need you to put them in, after all -- they're your design.

[worstvikingever]

Anytime, really. Later today? Are you going to be around there?
